5-Supporting Science<br />

Mathematics helps us to understand science and to design, conduct, and analyze the<br />

results of scientific experiments. Science requires us to collect data, interpret it<br />

for significant patterns, and make conclusions that further our knowledge. To<br />

collect and analyze data, students must be able to apply <strong>math</strong>ematical content and<br />

practices. This includes selecting appropriate tools, using those tools to model the<br />

data by describing it <strong>math</strong>ematically, and reasoning both quantitatively (to<br />

understand the data itself) and abstractly (to draw conclusions).<br />

Supporting Science - Teach With Tech Students—especially those who<br />

struggle with <strong>math</strong>ematics—need varied and ongoing support to develop the ability<br />

to apply their <strong>math</strong>ematical abilities to science. Here are some ways to provide this<br />

support.
